My first creation/freebie!

Hello to all my readers.... which is pretty much just Gabe, my brother. I'm hoping to get a few more followers after this post. I'm working on a project that I am going to put up on Teachers Pay Teachers or maybe TeachersNotebook. Last year, my school bought SMART Response clickers. (These ones!) The really fancy ones! I'm so excited! I've been dying to have clickers since I first heard about them in college. I can live without a SMART board but give me my Airliner and clickers!! Unfortunately we only had enough funds for two class sets. So I'm hoping the schedule I submitted works out so we get to use them every day. ANYWAYs, my project. I'm working on making SMART Response tests for the Common Core. So far for math it's been going well. Reading is a bit harder. But not going to give up. So stay tuned for that.

Yesterday I found high frequency word posters for sale but they were not from Harcourt Trophies, which is what we use. So I sat down to make high frequency posters. Now, this is my first (of hopefully many creations) but my computer doesn't have Microsoft Publisher. We have OpenOffice so I made these on OpenOffice Draw. It was my first time even opening the program, so considering that: I'm pretty proud of myself. So even though they are not PERFECTLY straight. I'm going to use them this year to conserve space on my walls. Well not conserve... but have more room for other things, like anchor charts.

So here is my freebie. It was on tabloid format (11 x 14) in OpenOffice but Google docs sees tabloid as 11 x 17. But I think when I converted it to pdf it changed it to 8x11. SO if you need it bigger let me know.
